My favorite GPS app on the iphone is motionx gps drive, with the
exception of some unlabeled buttons, it's very useable. It's a shame
Garmin's app does not provide spoken walking directions, because the
app itself is very accessible.

I tried the update for a couple of hours yesterday and had the same
problems here with the Navigon North America version. My negative
findings mirror those of DOnal and Anne. There are several critical
elements in the UI that VO is denied access to, the whole system became
very sluggish at times repeatedly becoming non-responsive with an "in
progress" message, and getting out of navigation mode is messy.
On the positive side, the new method of selecting individual states and
provinces is accessible and it seems they've simplified the UI to
eliminate some of the confusing steps previously required to get to
certain bits of information.
I haven't been a heavy Navigon User for several months, so this update
doesn't effect me much but knowing that the app is very popular with
the VI VO community, I can imagine Navigon will be hearing from many of us.

Some people seem to like the new Navigon, but I find it to be a
complete disaster! I can get it to start navigation, but stopping
navigation is almost impossible for a VO user. Also, it crashes when
trying to do anything after starting navigation.
